I would like to take a minute to thank Dr X for providing this fun thread and distraction during this time of year. It has been a difficult year for many, but people like Dr X give me hope for the future. My guess.......... Let's make it an even...... $1,700.00

I hope I am not stepping on anyone's toes. I wanted to provide some stats as to the guesses thus far. I count 25 total guesses; as follows... 331.57 350.00 643.14 753.50 823.14 872.61 1,000.01 1,058.91 1,083.92 1,111.11 1,139.64 1,151.50 1,197.06 1,215.87 1,217.09 1,223.57 1,234.56 1,250.56 1,313.13 1,373.00 1,374.23 1,379.88 1,444.44 1,578.71 1,671.43 This makes the average guess approximately $1,111.70

There goes all my plans.

5.5 times 7.75 times 22 = 937.75 cubic feet. 937.75 divided by 27 = approximately 34.73 cubic yards

Wouldn't that be a 91.125 cubic foot dumpster?

I was going to hit the "like" button on this, but then decided it deserved far more. Well done and congratulations!!!

Nice pick up. Congrats.

I just went and read the end of the thread you linked to WOW!

Congrats on the book . Very sorry to hear about the crack. That would be very frustrating.

I thought several of the prices were high tonight (at least on the items I was interested in).

Has anyone received their "wins" from the November Heritage Event Auction yet?? Just curious, as I do not show a tracking number yet. Thanks.

I find it sad that you do not have anyone in your life that you feel good about leaving the book to. If your neices and nephews are spoiled and have no interest in comics, then I agree you should not leave it to them. I am not sure why you would leave it to your wife's friend (who you don't like). I would think your first choice would be to leave it to your wife (with instructions on how to best liquidate it). If you outlive your wife, I would think there has to be some charity, organization, or person who you would feel good about leaving an expensive book. IDK. I guess in the end it really doesn't matter, because when the Master calls us home, our attachment to the things of this world will quickly disappear.

Looking at the original listing, it does not surprise me that the seller.. 1) Took all photos from the bottom of the book up (angled in such a way as I do not think it is possible to see the top edge of the book. 2) Does not accept returns. Of course, if I paid $200 plus S&H on this, I would want to return it. I think there may be a few members here who would prefer not to buy from this seller. https://www.ebay.com/itm/TAROT-WITCH-OF-THE-BLACK-ROSE-1-CGC-9-8-WHITE-Pages-Jim-Balent-1st-Print-/333784744369?hash=item4db71f01b1%3Ag%3ALNcAAOSwuh5fDo2R&nma=true&si=31Opi4BWu7adkqI54Mi4O2XvXRM%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Way to bring a pre-holiday sales thread, Jay.

Yes, but not the original airing. A little before my time. Loved that show growing up.

Once more you put in a fantastic auction !! And for those who are interested, tomorrow marks the 57 anniversary of the pilot episode of Dr Who.

What's the matter, WIlliam; do you have a problem with adults living in their mom's basement?

America's Best $255

Sorry to keep you waiting. Just messing with you. Wings 91 is a great book (IMO)! GLWTS

I read Chuck's email last night and found it "strange" how often bad things seem to happen to Chuck and to his "inventory". One line I found of particular interest was, "... but I am currently estimating that our loss (at retail) is at least $250,000.00, and probably end up at least twice that much." I am not sure an insurance company (which I am glad I am not Chuck's insurance company) is going to pay you losses "at retail" (especailly if your retail prices are many times greater than FMV. I would be interested to know exactly how much of a "pay out" he gets on this one. I think recycle centers pay $50 - $75 per ton of paper. Maybe that should be a starting point.

I really enjoy these weekly auctions. Also a fan of the hard ending. Thanks for putting these up every weekend.

I don't know if @mycomicshop has 10,000,000 comics, HOWEVER, when it comes to comics that people actually want to own/collect, IMO, MCS has a far better selection
